SolarEdge Home Battery Installation for Colorado Homes
Have SolarEdge solar and want backup? Whether a SolarEdge Home Battery bolts on or needs a new inverter depends on the SolarEdge inverter you have now. We check, explain your options and handle the install, permits and Xcel paperwork.
It starts with your SolarEdge inverter
SolarEdge Home Battery is designed to work with SolarEdge inverters, not as a standalone add-on. For backup power during an outage, SolarEdge requires its Home Hub inverter together with the SolarEdge Backup Interface. Some existing SolarEdge inverters can connect to the battery for storage, some can't, and older models generally need to be replaced with a Home Hub inverter.
The quickest first step: send us a photo of your inverter's label or tell us the model from your monitoring app, and we'll tell you over the phone which path you're likely on.
Your likely options
You already have a Home Hub inverter
This is the simplest path. We add the SolarEdge Home Battery and the Backup Interface, wire your backup circuits and commission the system.
You have an older SolarEdge inverter
We confirm whether it can connect to the battery at all. For outage backup, plan on replacing it with a Home Hub inverter as part of the project.
Your SolarEdge system is leased or under a PPA
The owner of the system usually has to approve changes. We'll review your agreement terms with you first.
You'd rather not change inverters
We can look at batteries from the brands we're certified with that can be added to existing solar. See adding a battery to existing solar.
What the install involves
- Compatibility check of your inverter, panel and monitoring.
- A main panel review, and a backup subpanel or main panel upgrade if needed.
- Electrical permit and inspection from your city or county.
- Utility interconnection paperwork for the modified grid-tied system, with Xcel Energy for most Front Range homes.
- Installation of the battery, Backup Interface and any inverter change, then commissioning in SolarEdge's monitoring app.
SolarEdge systems from installers who've moved on
Many Colorado homes have SolarEdge systems from companies that are no longer around. We work on systems we didn't install, and SolarEdge battery projects are a common reason homeowners call us. If your inverter is showing errors, we can look at that first. See SolarEdge monitoring transfer if you need access to your system.
